T IS curious how fashions and fads roturn. During tho last few
I seasons socloty has played bridge morning, afternoon and evening,
and sometimes the game would last until tho wee small hours, but
quite recently nearly all of the bridge clubs have changed to sowing
clubs.
During Lent It is mostly for charity that milady sews, but at other
times It Is making dainty boudoir caps or embroidering linens or making
dainty crepe de chine lingerie.
I asked a social butterfly, ono of the prettiest girls In tho younger set
and one of the best dancers, so it goes' without saying she is ono of he
most popular, "What are you doing socially this wcek7"

Whnaulnw ConfiU.
"About a year ngo my three hoys had

A most charming personage Is Mrs.
Maude Howe Elliott, daughter ot Julia
Ward Howe, who Is In Omaha to address
a meeting at the American theater
this evening under the auspices ot the
progressive party. Wide-awake, blue
eyes flash from a dainty countenance
framed with beautiful white hair, her
femininity utterly destroying the cur
rent Impression of "the suffragette," for
Mrs. Elliott Is a zealous worker In the
cause and Is to be tendered a luncheon
by the Omaha suffragists Wednesday
noon.
Mrs. Elliott was very emphatic In her
denunciation of the anti-suffrage move
ment. '"It Is too bad," she said, "that
the antl-auffrage women do not realize
that they are the tools and the toys of
the trinity of evil, the brothel keeper, the
gambler and the brewer, all of whom op
pose the suffrage movement.
"Suffrage Is eomlng. It Is coming with
seven-league boots, but my principal
concern now Is prepare the women for an
Intelligent and beneficial use of the
ballot."
Mrs. Elliott Is very fond of moving
pictures and chose to see the Buffalo
Bill historical pictures first of all during
her stay In Omaha. She was also de
sirous of viewing the reconstructed tor
nado district and will be taken through
this afternoon.
Mrs. Elliott was very complimentary to
The Bee, Mating that It was well and
favorably known all over the country.

Do Not Blame
the Operator
Sometimes in the Tele
phone Central Office sev
eral calls come in to ono
operator's position at
practically the same time,
and when such a conges
tion occurs you may feel
that "Central" is slow in
answeriug.
If you will hold a watch
on the operator for a
dozen calls, you will find
that on tho average sho
answers very quickly.
Delays Occur Anywhere
Sometimes you may have to wait for "Cen
tral," jusj as you might be delaved in deposit
ing money at a bank, or be slow in getting a
pound of tea at a grocery store, but the opera
tor usually answers very quicklv and handles
calls with wonderful accuracy.
